A Jim Jefferies smack down
31 Jul 2015
Taking on a professional comedian at their game should really be a universal no-no for practically anyone, unless you have a severe death wish. However some brave (read foolish) souls seem not to have not got the memo. One such individual made himself known at the Jim Jefferies Freedumb show at GrandWest last Tuesday night.
Shouting out: "You're fucking ugly!" at an opportune moment provided much material for Mr Jefferies. A comedic smack down of note proceeded. The poor dear was absolutely torn to shreds, lesson severely learned.
Jefferies, known for his misogynist, below-the-belt, offensive humour didn't disappoint. From Bill Cosby rape jokes, to Isis bashing, Jefferies held nothing back, spewing offence every which way he could. In fact, his aim is so wide that the hits pretty much cancel each other out. And, as he explained, at the end of the day it's just a joke, an entertainment act and not necessarily a personal viewpoint.
There were of course many "did he just say that" utterances and shock gasp laughs; however only a few walkouts that I noticed. All in all, a great night for belly laughs and head-shaking OMG moments.
